RE: Tetrahedral Kites : Fractal Flying Machines x Alexander Graham Bell

Could this geometry be used to facilitate wind based energy harvesting via windmills with tetrahedron geometry catching the air?

Interesting, it wouldn't be able to work as a traditional windmill... BUT - You could engineer it to capture pressure / vibration via wind passing through similar to an ocean buoy powered by wave action... It would be amazing to see a "wind" farm made of geometries like these. Thanks for your comment @vgratefulv !

Great content, keep it up.
